It has been remaiked that the American people obteiva an unwritten law which limits thsm iu their choice of pres denUto undistinguished lawyers or successful generals.

It is a tact that all our presidents htvs been either lawyers oi jheadi, of the army, and there can be no dispute as to the nou -success ot our ablest lawyers and parly chiefs, in aiming for the chief magistracy of the nation. For President safe and olid men are cboien rather than able men, hence the popularity of "dark horses'' and generals in national nominating conventions. President Cleveland i reputed to have those solid qualities which are in most demand by American voters. He is known not to be a brilliant man in any aense of the term but is hoped lit will be a safe olikf executive. He enters ollice tinder some disadvantages The Senate will be controlled by the opposite party during his term of office; while the Democratic majority iu the House will not be large.

If he is a man of wisdom and fact, this seeming disadvantage may inure the credit of his administration imljed he is under treat obligations to Independent Republicans, fur it was their votes which gave him the doubtful State of New York. If he can rise party, and insist upon ellicieucy and bonesiy in all departments of the government, he may secure as much pub lie approbation as the retiring president, Chester A. Arthur, whose administration of tL air Las won golden opinions trom 11 sort of people. Not being himselt noted part; leadsr, President Cleveland will probably surround himself with tfce ablest men in the political organization to which he is attached. In tbia be would follow the precedents set by other president, who were elected over tbe heads of the distinguished party chiefs.
